Endorsement . . . [in criticism of current furor over
importation controls] What did the box really contain?
This man surely deserves pity! but perhaps, the box
contained dye stuffs or indigo; if it was really this last
mentioned article, allow me, Mr. Peck, to propose a small
amendment to your next procession with your box and bell; --
be sure to have the word, INDIGO, painted in large capital
characters, on the sides of your box; --let the number of
the bells be encreased, and appended round your own next,
you will, then, be characteristically dressed, and may
prance before your decorated box, with all the frantic
solemnity becoming such a raree-show.
